A Guaymas (Mexico) dispatch May 10th, says: Earthquakes con tinue at Ures many buildings hay. ing been cracked and also rendered unsafe, none have been hurt but the inhabitants are leaving as fast as possible. A larger slice of the mountain fell down with terrible crash. The friction of rocks ig- nited woods, causing the belief that a volcano had broke out at Geli- cias. At the Sanira Elona mine the earthquake caused a great panic The whole hill fell down scattering rocks among 150 people but fortu- nately none were injured. Districts beyond telegraphic communication have not been heard from and the authorities are anxiously awaiting the arrival of some couriers.

The Tombstone Epitaph says il is confident that Mark A. Smith Arizona's Delegate to Congress, will put his shoulder to the wheel in the interest of our public lands. The silence of the Arizona press on this important subject is only equaled by the San Francisco papers treat ment of the Kissane matter. The claimants of Arizona grants are elated over the decision in the Max well case, and will push their spu- riops grants with all the vigor they possess. The ranchers of Arizona will watch MT. Smiths course on this matter with interest and con- cern, as all they possess in this world is placed in his hands as a sacred trust. We will say that as far as it in his power to assist them, it will be done, his whole energy will be given to this subject, as MT. Smith realizes the magnitude of the question, life or death for Ari- zona, nothing more nor less.

From all accounts the recent earthquake was very severe in the northern tier of States in old Mex ico. Gov. Torres, of Sonora, in a telegram says; "The earthquake caused terrible damage in Monte zuma and destroyed several villages but those in the northeast suffered most terribly. Oputo had all its houses destroyed and nine persons were killed; but Bavispe, the last frontier town at the corner of this State, was utterly destroyed. One hundred and fifty people were kill ed. The houses were levelled to the ground. A new volcano ap- peared, and its eruption destroyed all timber and pastures of the ad- joining valleys and mountains"

The Globe Silver Belt speaks en- couragingly of the outlook for Ari- zona as to copper production. The Mineral Belt railroad will give the mines around Globe facilities for shipping coke in and taking away the bullion, which will put her rich mines on a better footing than the Lake Superior or Montana mines, where the ore is base and requires tedious and expensive processes to extract the metal. With proper transportation facilities Arizona's mines will soon lead the world.

The Prescott Journal-Miner says J. c. Herndon received letter from Flagstaff containing the sad intelli- gence of the death of Captain B. B. Bullwinkle, manager of the Ari- zona Cattle Company. MT.

He was Secre- tary of the Chicago Board of Un- derwriters for years previous to his coming to Arizona. The letter states that he was thrown from his horse on Sunday, and died at two o'clock on Monday morning.

The Tucson citizen says: Mir. R. J. Kerr returned yesterday from a trip to Tres Alamos on the San Pedro, to which place he went to deliver about 1 400 head of cattle to the San Pedro Cattle Company. He reports an earthquake Assure nQt less than twenty-five miles in length. It extends from a short distance below Benson to fully 15 miles below Tres Alamos.

Kerr says that at the place where the Tres Alamos road crosses the Assure, he could see where parties had driven to it, but being afraid to cross, had turned and gone back. AS Mir. Kerr is re- liable this is earthquake news that can be depended upon.

 Just beyond Toyo, Don Miguel called my attention to an immense cigar factory with the remark "An American statesman made that l" Then he told me how. Soon after the great Missouri compromise con- test Henry Clay, ,who was very much broken in health, was prevailed upon by his friends to visit Cuba. The Spanish Government, learning of this, gave orders that he should be received as the guest of the na- ton. On his arrival at the Hotel Amy in Havana, now abandoned, he was received with extraordinary civic and military demonstrations, and a Virginian named Belt, an American literateur and linguist, then and now residing in Cuba, was appointed his cicerone.
 MT. Clay protested against these honors as being embarrassing and distracting to him, an invalid who had visited the island only for rest and recreation and he was finally given the keys of the city, but al- lowed to live in peace. At this time there was in Havana a poor. strug- gling cigarmaker, named Julian Alvarez. He sought Mir. Clay through MT. Belt and begged pit. eously to be allowed to use his name for brand of cigars, and that the great commoner would sit for por- trait to accompany the same. The petition was so made to Mir. Clay that it touched him deeply. His reply through MT. Belt to AlVarez was:
 Say to your Cuban friend that on earth could be more distasteful to me. I will do it, how ever, on the condition that Alvarez should it help him to gain fortune, never fail to be generous and boun= tiful to all men with whatever may
  be in his power to bestoW upon them"
 It is said that this portrait of MT. Clay is the finest one in existence, his own great praise of it being in his remark;
 1t is wonderfully ugly, and there- fore wonderfully like me-"
 Julian Alvarez died in Havana last year. The establishment which owed it's origin wholly to Mir. Clay's sympathy for struggling poverty, S the most noted of it's kind in the " world. Alvarez's death was mourn d by every human being in Cuba. He was undoubtedly the most gen. ,rous man, the most noble man, he most truly grateful: man, proven ,y his innumerable benefactions, yer known to the Spanish people, Cuban Letter in Detroit Free Press,

A Chihuahua (Mexico) dispatch
 ot the 10th instant says: Reports reached this city yesterday from the district of Ortega, of remark able gold discovery in that section. The country is an isolated one, be- ing situated far upon the Sierra Chilicole, one of the most uninvit- ing portions of Old Mexico. It seems four Mexican outlaws, had made these isolated mountains their rendezvous for many years, being perfectly safe from the clutches of the law. But recently posse of soldiers were sent under command of an officer, in pursuit of these robbers. Two of the soldiers re- turned to Chihuahua bringing with them over $20,OO0 in gold nuggets, and saying that they had failed to capture ApOdaca and his men, but had found the richest gold country on the globe, and to verify their re- ports, produced the gold. A tre- mendous excitement exists in the city over the reported gold discov- cry, and men are leaving for the new ''fnd" by the hundreds. Some four or five hundred men are al- ready on the way to the new mines.

Nevada (Mo.) Democrat.
The following occurred near Pedro
and Liberal, in Barton County, one
day last week: On Thursday morning
at q well-known farmers home not faI
from that town the farmers sons were
competing arduously on the barn floor
to ascertain who could put one of his
heels around his neck. One of the
boys said he had seen man in the
circus put both his heels around his
neck at once, and It would be strange,
indeed, If they could not get one
around. The boys heaved and strain
ed, and the hired man did likewise, to
accomplish the feat. But little did
they know the hired girl was watching
the performance with breathless inter-
est through knot hole in the barn,
and In few hours more the girl was
missing and q search was instituted
for her. After calling to her number
OF times with no response, she was
found in the milk-house lying pros
trate on the floor with both heels about
her neck and utterly unable to get
them loose.
She was SO upset that she is said to
have declared that she would have
died before calling for help. After
being helped out OF her predicament
and taken into the house it was found
that her right hip had been dislocated.
A physician from Pedro was sent for
who set the dislocated limb, but the
circus performer will be laid up for
several weeks.

The Wffe's Inf uence

Many man who has speculatet
with stolen money would be perfectly
safe today if he had confided In hi
wife. A woman instinctively shrink.
from the thought of evil-doing. TIL,
man, a self-deluded fool, easily per
suades himself that the money Is only
a loan; he has a sure thing. and nc
harm can be done by borrowing
what he needs. No such Jessuitica
sophistry beguiles the wife. She
knows it is theft, aud cannot be made
to see it in any other light. Woman
is society's balance wheel, and the
man who does not confide In his wife
leads life which cannot Omit of the
light of day being turned on it.
